Because I need you
Delirious, destructive, full of holes
Implemented by dark points of those too short in
Love.
I found myself cursing God and all creation.
A dark person who feared no scorn of talk of
Lovers.
I feared only falling in love again.
Feeling the vulnerability of insurmountable
Love.
I found you amongst the darkest of times
and desired not to love you but
I
Did. I flounder over you like a moronic fish
spewing lines like those of Orlando. I
Need
Not recite them because for in my heart
I hold them. for you I roll myself into a sheet of paper for
You
God! how my heart flutters at your presence
And I beweep your dismissal
More
Than you will understand.
Love isn't about obtaining what your opponent has, its more
Than
That. It's about pouring yourself into another person
To fill in their voids
You
Open your detestable heart in order
for them to purge it, letting in new light. The
Need
No! the desire to listen, and drink up all they have to say
And when their words enrage your heart, remember who cleansed it! For
Me
I desire nothing more than the enjoyment of your company,
to take you to dance after dance, to match you drink for drink
Kiss
You at the end of the night, to want
You as much as you want me. To see you smile and your
Heart
Soar with ecstasy. To give more than you can give me,
Hold the same dreams, plan on how we want to live, and be buried together.
Love
Until my heart shatters at the thought of you leaving.
Because in the end, I need you to
Live
